Statement by PBA President
Patrick J. Lynch on possible police layoffs
The NYPD lost 3,845 officers last year, the largest one-year attrition
in the department’s history. Laying off police officers as
this city struggles to fight terrorism and rebuild its economy is
not an option. The NYPD must be exempt from any additional cuts
because without adequate number of police officers, this city is
not viable for business or people. Our streets must be safe for
any thing else to matter.
